vice president secures the delegates needed to become the democratic nominee, days before she is set to pick a running mate. now harris turns her full focus to making a pick for vice president and it could be among the most consequential decisions of her political career. she has to make that decision within the next couple of days. cbs's robert costa reports on the vice presidents busy, busy weekend schedule. >> vice president kamala harris clinched the nomination in an online roll call and admittedly started rallying supporters. >> we are going to win the selection. >> next week, harris is slated to travel to seven battleground states as she works to build on her strong july, when she raised $310 million. she has a big decision to make in the next three days, who will be her running mate? she's meeting with her short-list, many, many of whom

canceled plans to meet her. >> every day we have to tweak the schedule a little bit, things come up -- calls and meetings we have to take care of. >> president biden today says she has spoken to her about her looming pick but did not offer any clues on what qualities she should look for. >> i'll work that out. >> reporter: the contenders include transportation secretary pete buttigieg, kentucky governor andy beshear, minnesota governor tim walz, illinois governor j.b. pritzker, arizona senator mark kelly, and pennsylvania governor josh shapiro, who went on the attack against donald trump's running mate. >> j.d. vance is a total phony baloney. [applause] he is the most inorganic candidate i think i have ever seen on the national stage. >> reporter: meanwhile, trump's racially-charged claim about migrants taking jobs of black americans was back in the headlines. >> coming from the border are millions and millions of people that happen to be taking black jobs.

>> reporter: today, simone biles posted, "i love my black job," soon after winning gold at the paris olympics. and the buzz over the vp pick reached another high this afternoon, when philadelphia's mayor cherelle parker posted on social media that she is proud to be standing with governor shapiro for vp, sparking instant speculation that she had leaked the choice too soon. a source close to the mayor said she was just supporting shapiro, not announcing anything. nancy? >> nancy: harris insists she hasn't made the choice yet. robert costa, hanks so much. appreciate it. three freed americans are recovering at a militaryappreci. after an emotional return to u.s. soil following one of the largest prisoner swaps with russia since the end of the cold war. president biden and vice president kamala harris greeted evan gershkovich, paul whelan, and alsu kurmasheva overnight at joint base andrews outside of washington. cbs's weijia jiang reports from

the white house. [cheers and applause] >> reporter: marine veteran paul whelan was the first former prisoner to step back onto u.s. soil, immediately welcomed home by president biden and vice president harris. "wall street journal" reporter evan gershkovich soon followed, embracing his mother on the tarmac. [applause] and journalist alsu kurmasheva. [cheers] who could not wait to see her daughters. >> to me, this is about, yes, it is who we are as a country, but it really is about personal relationships. it is about families. >> reporter: whelan's family played a critical role securing his release. they were disappointed when he was not part of the last prisoner swap with moscow that freed wnba star brittney griner and former u.s. marine trevor reed. >> sometime some harsh words with the government, having to keep them accountable for taking care of us, but, in the end, you

know, here i am. >> reporter: at least five americans remain imprisoned in russia, including 63-year-old marc fogel, a teacher from pennsylvania. two years ago, fogel was sentenced to 14 years in a penal colony for possessing medical marijuana. in a statement to cbs news, his family said, "we are completely heartbroken and outraged that marc has been left behind while the u.s. government brought other americans home." president biden vowed to fight for fogel. >> we are not giving up -- we are not giving up on tha. >> reporter: the agreement led to the release of 24 prisoners by seven different countries. among the freed russians, a convicted murderer, several spies, and hackers. on "cbs mornings," national security advisor jake sullivan justified the trade. >> at the end of the day, the president looked at this deal, and he said, what we are getting, the value of human life, the value of putting families back together, the value of standing up for freedom

of the press, far exceeds what we are giving up by sending a few more criminals back to russia. >> reporter: in his formal request for clemency, evan gershkovich asked if vladimir putin would sit down with him for an interview. tonight, the kremlin said it is ready to consider the request. nancy? >> nancy: that would be a fascinating interview. weijia jiang at the white house, thanks. >> i'm courtney keeley in new york with breaking news. the pla deal is off for accused 9/11 mastermind and to go of his alleged accomplices, secretary of defense lloyd austin announcing in a memorandum he has avoided the agreement, just days ago and removed the official who assigned off of it effective immediately. the deal would have prevented them from receiving the death penalty. turning to breaking news now on the economy and numbers that are raising some alarm bells. the labor department says the u.s. gained just 114,000 jobs last month, far below

expectations, while the unemployment rate jumped to 4.3%. wall street responded with a massive sell-off, with all three major indexes ending the day in the red. the nasdaq fell more than 2%. cbs news senior business and tech correspondent jo ling kent joins us now. jo ling, what do these numbers mean? >> reporter: nancy, simply put, these numbers are adding to fears that we could be entering the earliest stages of a recession. adding 114,000 jobs in july is a solid gain, but it did miss wall street expectations by quite a bit. weakening from the strong gains that we have been seeing over the last year. and with the unemployment rate rising to the highest rate in nearly three years, investors are worried, and that is why you saw stocks sink today. now, president biden acknowledge the disappointing jobs report today, saying there is more work to be done, and now there is even more pressure on the federal reserve to cut interest rates in that mid-september meeting after holding steady for so long, nancy.

>> nancy: jo ling, the fed just met two days ago. did they miss an opportunity to cut rates then? >> reporter: we were there at the federal reserve when the fed held rates steady, and critics now saying a september rate cut could be too little, too late. senator elizabeth warren called out fed chair powell today saying he "made a serious mistake," adding that he needs to "cut rates now, not wait six weeks." now, powell on wednesday told us reporters and telegraphing a september rate cut could be on the table, but now the markets predicting that could be a half a point instead of just a quarter-point. and, of course, that would be some welcome relief for people looking for a lower mortgage rate, more affordable car loans, and lower credit card interest rates. nancy? >> nancy: and businesses would welcome that rate cut, too. jo ling kent, thanks so much. we are tracking breaking news from the middle east tonight and the increasing threat of a wider war.

the pentagon says defense secretary lloyd austin has ordered navy cruisers and destroyers to the region, bracing for potential retaliation from iran against israel. cbs's debora patta is in east jerusalem. >> reporter: there are high levels of anxiety here, nancy. nobody really knows where or when iran could strike. experts in the region believe iranian hard-liners are pushing for a much harsher response than the attack in april. that strike demonstrated military muscle without really inflicting any significant damage. the u.s. and its allies intercepted hundreds of missiles and drones, helping down nearly all of them. this time, iran could join forces with its proxies, hezbollah in lebanon and the houthis in yemen. >> nancy: now to the latest fallout from the assassination attempt on former president donald trump. the acting secret service director robert rowe said they

"feel like they let the country down." cbs's nicole sganga has more. >> reporter: july 13th marked the very first time secret service counter snipers were deployed to a 2024 campaign rally for the former president, nancy. the secret service acting director revealed today secret service counter snipers first learned the assailant had a gun when shots were fired. >> this was a secret service failure. that roofline should have been covered. we should have had better eyes on that. >> reporter: rowe told reporters secret service was not in the same command center as local police. radio traffic warning that crooks had a rifle never made it to agents on the ground. the acting director said that will change moving forward. >> nancy: and a new jersey man has pled not guilty to felony charges, including attempted damage to an aircraft, after a string of bizarre incidents on board a flight from seattle to dallas last month. cbs's kris van cleave has those details. >> reporter: a 26-year-old

new jersey man is facing federal charges after an apparent tirade on an american airlines flight. court documents allege he had just consumed ten marijuana edibles. prosecutors allege eric gapco assaulted a crew member, forcing the flight to divert to salt lake city after refusing to stay in his seat, propositioning a flight attendant for sex, vaping, locking himself in the bathroom, and allegedly attending to open the cabin doors while in flight. >> he is locked in the bathroom now, pounding on the doors, so we will definitely need law enforcement. >> reporter: police removed him from the plane after it landed in utah. >> nancy: thanks to kris and our cbs news teams around the globe. tropical storm watches and warnings are posted in parts of florida ahead of what could soon become tropical storm debby. some cities are handing out sandbags to help people prepare for possible floods. let's get the details from cbs's lonnie quinn. good evening, lonnie. how bad could it be? >> nancy, i think the biggest threat of this is going to be rain. it's difficult to track a storm
